Alcatel One Touch Fire Running Firefox OS Unveiled in MWC after ZTE Open

Yesterday ZTE Open was spotted running brand new Firefox OS. Now Alcatel One Touch Fire is officially unveiled packed with the same operating system. Without any surprise specs are horrible. How does it sound when you hear a smartphone is equipped with 1 GHz Cortex A5 single core CPU, 256 MB RAM, 3.2 MP fixed focus camera, 512 MB ROM? I guess not interesting at all! Is it so? But Mozilla and the OEMs are trying to prove us wrong. That’s the main reason they have started using outdated hardware to show that the Firefox OS can run with this hardware whereas Android needs way more upgraded hardware for best output.

You don’t need to be too worried as Alcatel One Touch Fire is heading to China, Latin America followed by Europe. There is no certainty when it’s coming to India. I am afraid to say if this is priced around Rs 4000 it’s okay in Indian market. Otherwise, no luck here! Am I right? Or you want me to prove wrong by purchasing this one. But I am pretty much confident that with this hardware Alcatel One Touch Fire is running buttery-smooth on this whole new Firefox touch screen platform.

Key Specs of Alcatel One Touch Fire :

Firefox OS
Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM7225A S1 SoC
256 MB RAM, 512 MB ROM, micro SD card slot
3.5 inch HVGA TFT LCD display
3.2 MP fixed focus camera
